Visa extension

[Larz2013]

Im Australian, living in Thailand on tourist visas... I dont work, i was last in australia from April until aug 2013 to work.

I obtained a double entry tourist visa, as we are waiting for my thai partners PR visa for Aus to come through.

Ive extended my second entry by the 30 days allowable already. Am i able to extend by a further 7 days?

And that extension is for you to leave the country.

Yep, exactly. I only need an extra week hopefully, if not, ill go get another visa from Kota Bharu.

Actually I believe you apply for an extension and it will be denied, but they give you the 7 days to leave the country. You're only really allowed one "real" extension per tourist visa entry. If you still need a bit more time you could just cross a border, turn around and come back and get a 15 day visa exempt entry by just presenting your passport at the border immigrations.
